Hendrik Von Danwitz

Hendrik Von Danwitz, born on May 21, 1999, is a German racing driver with a passion for motorsport running in his genes, as his father, Herbert Von Danwitz, is a successful touring car racer. Hendrik began his motorsport journey in karting in 2013 at the relatively late age of 14. Despite being a latecomer, he quickly found success, winning the Club Championship of the Kart-Club Kerpen-Manheim in 2014, a club where legends like Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel also honed their skills.

Von Danwitz continued to excel in karting, achieving victories in the ADAC Kart Masters, Germany's premier kart racing series, and qualifying for the European Championship and German Kart Championship finals. In 2017, he transitioned to automobile racing, marking a perfect shift with class victories in the NES500 at Oschersleben and Spa-Francorchamps.

In 2019, Hendrik competed in the VLN Endurance Championship with Frikadelli Racing, securing the title in the Porsche Cayman GT4 981 class. In 2021, he embarked on a dual program in the Nürburgring Endurance Series, driving for both Frikadelli Racing and as a junior driver for BLACK FALCON Team IDENTICA. That year he also debuted in a Porsche 911 GT3 R. Currently, Hendrik competes in the VLN Endurance Championship Nürburgring and is associated with Frikadelli Racing Team.
